sched: Prevent interactions with throttled entities
From the perspective of load-balance and shares distribution, throttled
entities should be invisible.
However, both of these operations work on 'active' lists and are not
inherently aware of what group hierarchies may be present. In some cases this
may be side-stepped (e.g. we could sideload via tg_load_down in load balance)
while in others (e.g. update_shares()) it is more difficult to compute without
incurring some O(n^2) costs.
Instead, track hierarchicaal throttled state at time of transition. This
allows us to easily identify whether an entity belongs to a throttled hierarchy
and avoid incorrect interactions with it.
Also, when an entity leaves a throttled hierarchy we need to advance its
time averaging for shares averaging so that the elapsed throttled time is not
considered as part of the cfs_rq's operation.
We also use this information to prevent buddy interactions in the wakeup and
yield_to() paths.
